IMPORTANT COVID-19 ​VISITOR POLICY

For the health and safety of our staff, volunteers and the community, ACL will be closed to general visitors until further notice.

If you have lost or found a pet, please note that we are open for animal services, but have implemented traffic maximums so only key parties will be allowed in the facility to execute these services.

We have adjusted to conducting adoptions by appointment only.  This has allowed us to facilitate adoptions 7 days per week while ensuring that traffic at the shelter is kept to our protocols to maintain health and safety.  We are conducting virtual appointments through Zoom and Facetime.  To start the adoption process, please fill out an adoption questionnaire which can be found on each of the adoptions pages of this website.  Once you have filled out the application, an adoption team member will contact you for an adoption screening and to set up next steps.

For questions regarding our visitor policy, donation drop off and more you can email us at info@animalcareleague.org or call us at 708-848-8155.

​HOW YOU CAN HELP

One of the most effective ways you can help ACL during this time is through a monthly donation through our ACL Heroes campaign. The consistent support we receive through this campaign will be instrumental in getting us through the challenges of this crisis.

Be sure to sign up to receive our emails for important updates! Click here to sign up.

Since the shelter will be running with minimal staff and volunteers, we are in need of foster homes.  If you are interested in fostering an animal please fill out our foster application. 

If you are interested in making an in-kind donation, we encourage you to purchase from our Amazon Wish List and ship direct to the shelter.  You can also drop off supply donations at the door. 

Since we have had to cancel events including two major fundraisers, donations are needed now more than ever.  If you are able to make a monetary donation to help support our animals, click below!
